The image shows a vertical display panel, likely an outdoor exhibit or informational sign, about the genocide of the Soviet people and punitive operations during wartime. The location is unspecified, but the panel's text is in Russian, and one caption refers to villages in the Smolensk region. The panel features a dark gray background with lighter gray text and monochrome photographs. The text headings are "GENOCIDE OF THE SOVIET PEOPLE: PUNITIVE OPERATIONS." The body of the text describes the cruelty of German occupiers during punitive operations. It lists methods of destruction such as mass shootings, burnings alive, poisoning, starvation, torture, and freezing. There are four black and white photographs arranged in a grid. These include: * A picture of arsonists burning a village east of Smolensk. * A picture of the village of Kozmodemyanovka, a picture of the burning expedition against the partisan territory. * A close-up photo of a group of people examining a site where a chemical weapon was used, apparently in the Suzem district. * A photo of a written document, presumably an official record. Additional text includes captions for each photograph and quotes or excerpts from historical documents related to the atrocities committed. At the bottom of the panel, there is an “Act of Lawlessness”, and a statement indicating that “Of the 31 households, not a single one remained: all burned.”
